For some reason I think that if Alphonso Smith is still on the board unless Michael Oher slips to #32 which will not happen then I see the Steelers taking him

OL in round 1, DE in round 2. The OL needs some competition, obviously, but Kemo and Stapleton are both young guys coming off their first seasons. I doubt we'll go with OL guys in the first 2 rounds, unless OL guys are BPAs.

If we lose McFadden and a 1st rd corner is still available I think we will take one. Either Smith or Moore

The Steelers will in my opinion select the best available player at 32. I would love to see it be C Alex Mack or a D-lineman, but I guess we will just have to wait and see..

I think Darnell Dockery just got another sack on Ben as I was typing this....Stapleton is a wave player only...not a starter...You can bet that we will get an interior linemen and a OT in this draft

Stapleton is good as a stop gap guy or as a injury replacement. Nothing more. So I have to agree with you. The last pick I got right when predicting the Steelers first pick was Ben. Every year the guy we are locked in on is taking before we pick. Remember Matt Jones? Nick Mangold? Gosder Cherilus? All guys the "experts" said was our guys.
